(Chemical Equation Presented) Enantiodivergent synthesis of both (-)- and (+)-disparlure, a bioactive pheromone, possessing a cis-epoxide has been accomplished. The key step involves the cross metathesis of a chiral homoallylic alcohol derived from L-(+)-tartaric acid.

1,2-O-Isopropylidene-α-D-xylopentodialdo-1,4-furanose readily avalaible from D-glucose was transformed in two Wittig reactions and glycol cleavage into a (Z) and (E) mixture of (7R,8R)-8-benzyloxy-7-hydroxy-2-methyl-9-octadecenes.From this chiral synthon both enantiomers of disparlure, (7R,8S)-(+)- and (7S,8R)-(-)-7,8-epoxy-2-methyloctadecane were obtained in four and three steps, respectively.
